Other than regular dusting the old bugger, is there anything else I can do to prolong its life span? 

Would reapplying thermal paste be necessary at some point? Would it void my warranty?

    As long as your temps are good, you do not need to repaste.
     
    No, changing thermal pads, or thermal paste will not Void your warranty
     
    However if you cause damage while repasting your card, that is not covered by warranty
     
    Unless you bought the extended warranty from EVGA, one would think by now the stock warranty (usually 3 years, depends on part number) would have expired by now
     
    read these EVGA FAQs:
    Does overclocking void my warranty on EVGA products?
     
    Does water-cooling or installing a third party cooling solution on my video card void the warranty?
